Cara Isabelle SIMS, Petitioner v. Earl Otis SIMS, Respondent and Appellant
[¶1] Earl Sims appeals from a domestic violence protection order entered against him in December 2020. He argues the evidence presented at the district court hearing did not support the two-year protection order. We conclude the court's findings are not clearly erroneous. See Lindstaedt v. George, 2020 ND 262, ¶¶ 3, 5, 952 N.W.2d 102 (the clearly erroneous standard of review applies to factual findings made by the district court in N.D.C.C. § 14-07.1-02 domestic violence proceedings). We affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2).
Per Curiam.
